Tour de La Provence – Major Bike Race

This three-stage race begins tomorrow. The visual above has the stages but locals may like to watch the start in Aixwhere there is a ‘village’ with animations and the opportunity to meet the cyclists. This is at the Avenue Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart from where the teams will depart at 11:15.

The route takes them around the Sainte-Victoire and they are due to finish at Notre Dame de la Garde in Marseille, 171.4 gruelling km later.
